Somewhere Down The Line - CD
My first studio album, supported by of the East of England Arts Council, via the Escalator Project. Recorded at High Barn in Essex. FATEA Review: "It's an album which drifts between Americana and folk in a contemporary style. There is a sense of mischief in both Marina's vocal tone and her delivery"

“After a couple of listens to This, That & The Other, you’ll find yourself nodding your head as her clever storytelling tunes wash over you.” - Steve Taylor
— R2 Magazine
faith - the single
“beautiful track xx” - Sue Marchant
faith started life as a poem, written in response to this modern way of living, everything moves so fast. Life can talk us down, make us feel worthless, tell us how we should live, who we should love, what clothes we should wear, every aspect of what we do and how we do it, there's an opinion out there...
“In a world where everyone shouts and attempts to dominate through law and violence, Marina Florance gets her point across calmly. There’s tremendous purpose behind that style.”

About Shadows:
It's taken two years to finish my latest album "Shadows" and a whole lotta life has passed under the bridge since then, there's been the odd derailment thrown in with bouts of hopeful happiness, that's life I suppose. I'm lucky to live in a country where I'm safe, where I have a roof over my head, know where my next meal is coming from and can sit round a table with my family and enjoy it. For many this may never be so, as the rich and powerful continue to wage war with zero regard for human life.
The album has a bit of everything that I'm about lately, there are four studio recorded tracks with fiddle and bass and mandolin. one live track (just me and my guitar), two spoken-word and one which is a mix of spoken-word with a bit of singing. If you find that you like one or two of them then I'm winning.
All of the lyrics/words and music are written by me with one exception, the lyrics of "Without Goodbyes Live" are by my good friend Richard Pierce.
Home Bird is a duet with Marie Saunders, who has undoubtedly brought the country vibe to this track , without the vocals of Marie I would never have achieved this sound.
I really hope you find something to love here and would really like it if you told me (validation always welcome) please share with a friend, thank you for reading this far.

“The best sung track on the album, “Shadows,” is an intimate description of mental illness that could truly only be authored by someone with a good understanding of it.”
